Water Vapor Spectroscopy and Thermodynamics Constrain Earth's Tropopause Temperature

Abstract As Earth warms, the tropopause is expected to rise, but predictions of its temperature change are less certain. Longstanding theories employing “gray” radiation tie the tropopause temperature to outgoing longwave radiation (OLR), but this is in contrast to recent work in which simulations e...
